Why Daniela Messina chose Moonridge

We come to Big Bear at least six times a year and wanted somewhere clean and comfortable to stay. You never know what you're going get when you rent a random cabin. We wanted to provide a clean, comfortable experience for our guests. We also wanted something very close to the Bear Mountain. The best part is you don't have to drive to the mounting during those busy months especially when the parking lot fills - just walk down to the shuttle stop for a free ride.

What makes this Cabin unique

The goal with this cabin to have something very different from your typical 'cottage' home with cottage decor. We're going for a plush ski cabin look. Updated in March 2015, we've added all the comforts of home in a convenient little cabin.

We really enjoyed our stay. It’s a small cabin but plenty of room for our family of 3 + dog. The hot water is plentiful, shower pressure excellent, and there was a great selection of games to play. Daniela is really responsive to questions. The kitchen has a good supply of cooking equipment. The location is nicely located to hiking trails. It was a nice weekend!

Small cabin, but it had everything we needed and was quite romantic with the electric fireplace! Although we never got the opportunity to bbq on the deck, we did cook/eat in, as the owner had the cabin supplied with everything we needed to do so. We loved spending time with one another playing uno and other card games in front of the romantic fireplace while our 6 year old labrador, Callie Rae, enjoyed watching the birds and squirrels from the spacious front deck. I recommend!

This cabin was perfect for us to celebrate our 37th anniversary! It was cozy, clean and organized. .The kitchen had everything we could possibly need. We loved sitting out on the generous porch and listening to the wind in the trees.

We visited the zoo and fully enjoyed a presentation of the beautiful snow leopard sisters.

We will definitely return to this adorable little hideaway in the future!

Loved the cabin and the area. It was perfect for my husband and I and our pups. My only complaint would be the towels. They were very rough to dry off with. Other than that, the cabin was perfect!

Owner's Response:

Glad you loved the cabin! We'll talk to our cleaning service about the towels, it's odd because we just purchased all new towels (perhaps they aren't using softener?). Thanks for letting us know!

This cabin provides the basics, but nothing more than that. If you plan to cook you'll need to bring your own seasonings, spices, etc. Salt and pepper are provided. The dishes and pots & pans are there for you. The cabin is nice and clean. My only concern is this: the bathtub/shower is very slippery when trying to step in and out. Be careful!!

Cabin is a bit small but cozy and clean. Love the front porch, the neighborhood and the walking distance to the local coffee shop. The village and supermarkets are just a few minutes away.We had an awesome time. Can’t wait to go back!
